  • To explore more about what the rugged cross means, here is our little book about the subject, where we explore Easter and why it matters to us in the 21st century. Available in paperback £4.99 / $9.99 and Kindle £0.77 / $1.06 or free! www.amazon.com...
    Used at WOWChurch - The singer is John Berry
    On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
    The emblem of suffering and shame;
    How I love that old cross where the dearest and best
    For a world of lost sinners was slain.
    Chorus:
    So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
    Till my trophies at last I lay down;
    I will cling to the old rugged cross,
    And exchange it some day for a crown.
    O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
    Has a wondrous attraction for me;
    For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
    To bear it to dark Calvary.
    Chorus:
    So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
    Till my trophies at last I lay down;
    I will cling to the old rugged cross,
    And exchange it some day for a crown.
    Then He'll call me someday
    To my home far away
    Where His glory forever I'll share
    Chorus:
    So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
    Till my trophies at last I lay down;
    I will cling to the old rugged cross,
    And exchange it some day for a crown.

    I remember when i was a child.. My grandma and great grandma took me to church... My cousins, and brother and sister didn't wanna go... This is one of many Christian songs I've grown to love!! I'm so glad I got to know Jesus, and got saved!! Love you all... God bless

    Today my Grandma passed away and last week due to misunderstanding a girl break up the relationship with whom I had planned to marry. And I feeling totally depressed and broken hearted. There was no comfort and support to me. But then I remembered and searched for this childhood hymnal song which had comforted me back then.
    Now I'm feeling God is in total control of my life and I'm willing to accept any challenge and tough times of life. Thank you Jesus for strengthening and empowering me with your love and care.
    I pray and Ask God to protect all those who are hopeless and depressed and broken hearted people who are searching for some comfort and support emotionally.
    May God bless All of us. And we always cling to the old rugged cross.
    What a wonderful song for the glory of God.
    Thank you so much Jesus for the old rugged cross. I will cling to the old rugged cross and exchange it someday for a crown.

    This hymn is the only one my mother taught me to sing . It was a Sunday but there was so much rain at night at it made it impossible to cross the river to go into village and worship that day so my mother took out her hymn book and sing this and it’ll always be my favorite of all.

    This is the best song I have ever heard, which has brought me closer to Jesus and changed my life. Every time I'm in distress or disturbed I listen to this song, and believe me, I feel I'm in paradise, my life once again full of peace.Listen to this song as often as possible and you will experience peace.

    This is the first time I've been able to listen to this song since it was sung at my Dad's funeral , 29 years ago. Up until that point I kept a brave face but I broke down uncontrollably when this song was sung . I've never been able to bring myself to hear it. I have done now. I still cried .

      I love this song as well as Just a Closer Walk with you. Both from my youth. A blessing for you that you can now. Hear this song and enjoy it. Have you read the book of Enoch.? I just read it last night. I could not put it down. You tube has it. It was amazing and speaks to this time now while we fight the evil that is no longer hiding, but in our face stealing our GOD given freedoms. Praise God we will meet our creator soon. I can only imagine, another favorite modern song. ❤️❤️🇺🇸❤️💥💥💥💥🔥🔥❤️❤️
